Now that the US is a post democratic state, where the President can ignore his courts and rip up the constitution in the name of an emergency he manufactured, coerce universities to crack down on dissent and report the un-American and deport whoever he wants regardless of the law.

Isn’t it time you cashed in to improve your position? That guy who passed you over for promotion, he’s obviously not full Anglo-Saxon, didn’t he wear a pride badge once?

Am I getting this right, you went for a low-level CIA job, and they set a car crash up to tell you that you weren’t getting it?

I suppose that’s why the US has the highest car deathrate per capita of all the OECD nations, to save someone writing a letter of rejection.

To me the wholesale invasion hypothesis is one idea, the DNA sources are necessarily small and tracking back through the genome is problematical.
The original hunter gatherer societies in Mesolithic Britain would have been very small (around 100,000) and their requirements for land would not necessarily have clashed with early farming communities. In Saxony Mesolithic hunter-gatherers and Linearbandkeramik farmers occupied mutually exclusive areas of the landscape for an appreciable time, they would have benefited from trade with each other and chronological mapping in Northern Britain seems to support this, the differing funerary rites would have masked the overlap as the indigenous practiced cremation which doesn’t leave DNA to test, and then intermarriage with a lot more successful and thus larger population in subsequent generations would bring about the same result.

Being human of course, violence is very much on the cards, but not on the scale of the Roman invasion, the numbers weren’t enough.
More of a “fuck off!” “Nah you fuck off!” chucks spear, checks the size of the others and moves twenty miles.

Pretty much conjecture based on archeology, DNA studies and trends in thought, because as you say there is nothing written.

 Which was kind of what I was flippantly hinting at with the Epona thing, the Jesus narrative is an amalgamation of all the unwritten preceding myths, having been directly plagiarized in some cases from Egyptian and Mesopotamian stories (Noah’s ark), unfortunately when it was finally codified it was done so using a misogynistic desert tribe’s version.

Celts, Gaul’s, Britons, Beaker people (later known as the Beaky blinders), pretty sure many were the same, bloody clever lot with Stonehenge and the Mold Cape from Goblins Hill (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/The_Mold_cape.jpg), and they had a horse culture, including chariots, wagons and bridles made of antlers.

devotive carving of the white horse in the Berkshire downs, done 1,000 yrs before christ

Isn't it hotly debated whether it even represents a horse?  Let alone anything to do with Epona?

Well, it could be a polecat, but horses were venerated by the Celts as symbols of wealth and power, polecats, not so much. also, it’s in the Vale of the white horse on Whitehorse hill, so I would hotly contend that the hot debate you mentioned is probably lukewarm at best.

probable reason for the baby Jesus being born in a stable.

Quite a claim!

Of course, (did you think I was serious?), but she was a fertility goddess, her name means great Mare (Mary), and she was goddess of Horses, donkeys and mules, which were in attendance and integral to the Jesus myth, so I’m going with it.

The Queen is Epona, fertility goddess of the northern Gaul’s, worshipped even by the Romans as the goddess of cavalry because of the devotive carving of the white horse in the Berkshire downs, done 1,000 yrs before christ and probable reason for the baby Jesus being born in a stable.

It’s good to see Trumpy getting rid of the “Lie factory*” that purveyor of “radical propaganda*" the VOA and Radio Free Asia/Europe, as it will be a "big contribution to eliminating fake news"*, such as the Chinese Communist Party's alleged cover-up of Covid fatalities, which won it awards, and the detention of hundreds of thousands of Uyghur Muslims without trial.
It must be a good thing for free speech because the Russians, North Koreans and the Chinese are happy, I wonder if JD Vance has a take.

The point is that it's not the disease outbreak keeping egg prices high. The reason people are focused on it is because the media have just now decided to put the blame on the egg cartel and not Trump firing scientists at USDA. Also, eggs are (or were) an inexpensive source of protein for poor people.

Egg prices are an indication, the outbreak is worldwide and has been for years, our egg prices are up but not like yours. Sacking the USDA scientists may not have a short-term effect, like dumping 80,000 people out of their jobs, or sacking half your workforce at X, but it will come back to haunt you at some point, as X is finding out, and the man that did that, and resided over its probable demise along with Tesla, is now kneecapping agencies across the board and creating chaos, especially it seems those that have conflicts with his business interests.

Trump was not elected because people thought he would immediately fix things.

He was elected because he would enact rational economic policies, like tariffs, instead of taxes.

You know when WTL says something is rational, it's horseshit with a pink bow.

The eggs were an aside, my main point you ignored.

Being


"I don’t think it can be argued anymore that Trump et-al are not Russian assets, through choice or coercion the volte-face in American policy away from allies to dictatorships, based as it is on lies about the unfairness of deals, some of which that have Trump’s signature on them, the voting in the UN with North Korea, Belarus and Russia against Europe, and now suspending aid to Ukraine because they wouldn’t sign away their wealth.

The ambush of Zelazny in the Whitehouse was indicative of the scripting of the US position by the Kremlin, no Associated Press or Reuters journalists allowed but the boyfriend of a mad woman and Pravda in attendance."

You then did your customary diversion making out I blamed Trump for the flu, when I was alluding to his promise that he would lower prices from day one, but then you continue to be disingenuous about the firings of the people who were leading the response to the bird-flu, saying it “may have” hampered the response.
If your house is on fire and I sack the firemen, and then scrabble to find and re-hire them, I don't think it “”may have” contributed to your dwelling burning down, would cut it.

Trump purposely gave birds the flu! He'll get your birds too.

We’ve had it here at least since early 2024, about a third of England is under restrictions.

Doge sacked the USDA officials who were working on your response to it (like they did with Ebola response), although they were attempting to rehire them again, that is what the American people want, apparently.

As most of what comes out of the “Press briefings” by the Whitehouse is hearsay or just junk made up by Fox ($50 million to Gaza for condoms), which actually went on two field hospitals that were treating 33,000 patients a month. But hey.

I feel sorry for Americans.

No country is perfect, but it is increasingly obvious that the US lacks the maturity of all our other colonies, if they had just waited until we granted them their freedom like we did with Canada, Australia, and the rest, rather than getting stroppy about our plans to ban slavery and give the indigenous peoples a decent homeland, as we were about to do before they took off. Rewriting history to blame it on the taxes.

I think they would be a more balanced and capable society now, not banging around trying to bully allies and sucking up to tyrants.

All of what BB says is wrong as usual.
If you look at the archeology and the study of genetic drift, there are no “races”, just a mix of clusters of shifting gene pools blending and merging through invasion, colonization, slavery, and nomadism. The borders of these counties have constantly shifted over the centuries and are largely arbitrary.

The Iranians, from the same root as Aryans, incidentally, is an obsolete grouping that covers the people from India (the term comes from the Hindu Vedas) to the middle East.

I suspect he’s just dog whistling from a position of Christian exceptionalism, filtered through a US isolationist perspective and a poor education.
